Farm Chicks 2010


We are back from a fantastic Farm Chicks show.
This show goes by so incredibly fast for us , sometimes
its a little hard to remember all the details.
Something that's not hard to recall is
how incredibly FUN this show is!
Here's how our booth started Saturday morning.
Always over packed 'cause I don't want that
one thing you wanted to have been left at home :0)

Its fun to look at photos and say

That sold,

That sold,

Yeah , that sold , too.




The lavender sachets were a great seller, I am making
more for the Portland Antique show and Barn House in July.

Can't believe I still have the Garden cart . Not that it's a problem ,
it wouldn't be the worst thing if it winds up in my yard. :)

The mannequin found a new home with Liz , at Seabold Vintage Market.



The cutest young couple bought the white cubby,
I was kicking myself later for not getting their photo.
They were incredibly sweet and such fun to
see them with their new treasure.
I love seeing someone so Happy with their new purchase!



So the runners were a Huge success. Looks like
my house will be filled with Burlap dust bunnies
in tne next few weeks as I sew more for
Barn House.

Here's my all time FAVORITE new Vendor
Lisa and Tim from
Blue Canoe


They traveled up from California to do the show.


Judging by the response to their booth -
they'll be back.
I bought the Best thing they had -
LOL!
Well , I think it was the best!
I had to have my son-in-law
over to help Joe get it in the house.
You know if it's Heavy I'll buy it!
I'll try and get photos of it later today
Plus
I have more photos of all my
Monticello buds booths at Farm Chicks.

thanks for sharing your Farm Chicks photos...i'm guessing there are hundreds more like me that only get to travel to this once a year show virtually and you just became one of our tour guides!

Phenomenal experience, yes! Wish you were closer to me at Expo (where are you anyway?). I'm Hall E, C6 & 7.

I believe we just had a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I intend to learn from it. Just basking for now, though. Let's talk *synergy* about Expo . . . every day, in every way, life is getting better & better (Bob & Deb). Take care,

I would love to come to the Farm Chicks show sometime! The cubby would of been one of the things I'd pine over... love it, love it! We did the Junk Bonanza last year and had so much fun. I'm sure the Farm Chicks show is just as awesome! As always I enjoy your posts! Keep 'em coming!

Sue, your booth looked gorgeous...think I need to hire you as a stylist or at least a buyer. You always find the coolest things. Loving the runners as well!
Lisa and Tim are a hoot. They come to Warrenton/Round Top and crack me up...they are a fun couple with great eyes for buying.

Your booth looks great Sue. I can see why you were so successful!
I'm anxious to see your new cabinet I hear rumors that it's pretty terrific! Glad you made it home safely.

Amanda said...

Shelly, I found you over at my friend Tiffany's (Fancy Farm Girl) Blog & fell in love with your booth from Farm Girls Sale. That is soooooooooo on my list of places to need to go. She showed photos of your crinolines in your booth. Do you have any left? I am so wanting some to wear for two Art Events I am going to. I will be back for sure.
